The U.S. Department of Justice's Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) awarded a $1,033,616 Project Grant under the Treatment Court Discretionary Grant Program (CFDA 16.585) to the County of Albany, Wyoming. The grant will fund the Albany County Court Supervised Treatment Program (ACCSTP), which aims to enhance juvenile treatment services, including screening, assessment, case management, recovery support, and program coordination. The project seeks to expand access to substance use disorder services, increase the number of individuals served, and improve the quality of treatment by maintaining evidence-based approaches or adding new services to address unmet needs. The grant period runs from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2028, and the program will serve the rural community of Albany County, particularly economically disadvantaged individuals and those facing persistent poverty.

The albany county court supervised treatment program (accstp) is designed to meaningfully advance equity and remove barriers to service access and opportunities for the rural community of albany county, particularly for economically disadvantaged individuals and those who face persistent poverty. Accstp seeks to expand juvenile treatment services, including screening, assessment, case management, recovery support services, and program coordination through a coordinated, multisystem approach combined with judicial oversight authority to reduce recidivism and substance abuse. The program enhancement would also improve access and availability of adolescent substance use disorder services, increase the number of individuals served, and/or propose enhancements to improve the quality of treatment services by maintaining evidence-based treatment approaches or adding new treatment services to address unmet needs or emerging trends.
